Clinical software integration
The NCSR has developed a non-proprietary and standardised common interface (REST FHIR API 2.0) which allows you to integrate your clinical software (excluding lab software).
This allows you to seamlessly access and report clinical data for the bowel and cervical screening programs from the patient management software you use on a daily basis.

Functions and benefits
Integrated software users can:
- order your patient a National Bowel Cancer Screening Program test kit to be delivered to their address

- check patient screening information and program status
- receive reminders for patients overdue for screening or follow-up
- manage your patient’s participation in the bowel and cervical screening programs
- check and update patient details
- view and submit screening information about your patient, such as colonoscopy or colposcopy information
- view patient program correspondence for bowel and cervical screening programs
- nominate other people to assist your patient, including another doctor or a personal representative.
